Anyone who has ever used a Microsoft Kinect knows that the potential for the platform is nothing short of game changing. While the implementation on the Xbox 360 has been incredible, this is only scratching the surface as Microsoft has shown in a newly created video.

Not only is Kinect breaking down barriers, but it is also one year old today. The platform had explosive growth when first announced and its future looks bright if the video below is anything to judge the product by.

The video shows all of the alternative uses for the platform in a well composed video that encompasses the potential and future for the add on device. It is expected that Windows 8 will natively support Kinect which will open the doors even further to the potential of the platform. Kinect is the future for interacting with technology; Microsoft knows it and is working hard to make it a reality.
